Homemade Churros
Cook Directions
Step 1 In a large saucepan over medium heat, add water, butter, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then add vanilla. Turn off heat and add flour and salt. Stir with a wooden spoon until thickened, 30 seconds. Let mixture cool for 10 minutes.
Step 2 To cooled mixture, using a hand mixer, beat in eggs one at a time until combined. Transfer mixture to WILDDIGIT churro maker fitted with your favarite tip.
Step 3 In a large pot over medium heat, add enough oil to come halfway up the sides and heat to 375°. Holding the churro making machine a few inches above the oil, carefully pipe out the churros into 6" long ropes. Use kitchen scissors to cut off dough.
Step 4 Fry until golden, 4 to 5 minutes, turning as necessary. Fry 3 to 4 churros at a time and let oil come back to 375° before each batch. Remove churros with a slotted spoon or tongs and immediately roll churros in cinnamon sugar, then place on a cooling rack.
Step 5 Make chocolate dipping sauce: Place chocolate chips in a medium heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring heavy cream to a simmer. Pour hot cream over chocolate chips and let sit 2 minutes. Add cinnamon and salt and whisk to combine.
Step 6 When the chocolate sauce has cooled to the point where its not too hot to handle , use a piping bag with a long nozzle to inject the chocolate sauce into the churros."
